What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to City Wide's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Non-Compete Agreement is included as Attachment F to the Franchise Agreement. Specifically, Section 12.1 of the Franchise Agreement states that the franchisee is required to execute the Non-Compete Agreement, which is attached as Attachment F. This agreement outlines the restrictions placed on the franchisee regarding competitive activities during and after the franchise term.
The Non-Compete Agreement ensures that franchisees do not directly compete with City Wide during the term of the agreement. It also prevents them from engaging in similar businesses for a period of two years after the agreement's expiration or termination. This includes restrictions on diverting business, owning competitive businesses, or having a material interest in such businesses. The agreement protects City Wide's confidential information, training materials, client lists, and business strategies.
City Wide also has the right to modify the scope of the non-compete covenants and require franchisees to have their personnel who perform managerial or supervisory functions and all personnel who receive training from City Wide to enter into similar covenants. This ensures broad protection of City Wide's interests and trade secrets. Disputes arising under the Non-Compete Agreement are subject to the dispute resolution provisions outlined in the Franchise Agreement.
